the union iron works contains a wide variety of strictly buildings go from world war ii. their locked east of illinois. in t in the nomination process began in the 1880. the red brick building is the building 113 and 14 viewed from the central baseline with the richest hill in the background. in 1884 did union iron works built the first ship and this ship was a freighter for the coal company. in 1886 the union iron constructed a blacksmith shop and those buildings were designed by civil engineers and they were joined in 1914 and this is the oldest survivor on the site. in 1896 they have a renaissance to serve as the union iron works office building and later the hospital. it was designed that i architects george and frederick hampton and they had another building in the lower left hand corner it had two wings at the rear with the glass. in 1886 they had a admit building and the union iron works built the admiral ship in the 1898 it went around the corners. it was nationally significant for the shipbuilding and one of the continuously operated shipyards it was known for its

they left after they joined the european union. maybe some regarded it as a success and some thought it was a naal tragedy. we don't want to support nato in the economic corporation with the european union. >> rose: it is said t baltic countries are worried to death that russia may come after them. they are some of them nato countries. >> they are all of them nato countries. and there's no need to worry. >> rose: if you're a nato country, russia's not going to come after you because that will call the treaty into effect. if ukraine had been a member of nato russia would have kept its hands off it. >> this is a hypothetical conversation. as far as i'm concerned the countries could float in the indian ocean whout worrying about that, you know. we're not talking about crimea, we're talking about where we care about baltic countries. i been there a long time ago. they have this psychic thing, psychological thing and they need to overcome that. there's no threat from russia to baltic countries. they depend heavily on russia for economic

by the way the unions have money. they're learning a hard way at the end of the day on the pecking order the environment ammists are up there. president obama is up there. they're starting to fade, they don't like it. it's starting to pocket. >> i think if you read this report from this union group, it says they approve of the effort to extend coverage for the under and uninsured. as long as we don't have to pay for it and our health insurance doesn't change in anyway. >> by the way, i will point out the new battle front and the one that is looming is the cadillac excise tax of 40% on very large health insurance plans, because that is going to hit. >> you knew that. >> that is going to-it the unions both private sector and public sector squarely. already, employers and cities and states are trying to massage the health care coverage the reason workers get. >> she's right. >> i think this proves you need part of the 1%. >> we should start an occupied movement union next. listen, they get very good benefits. they make a

maybe we should join the european union join the european union individual judgment a joint constitutionan you, i don't know. we've got to start all over again. on the other hand, the europeans got so involved that they also forgot their interest. one of the main ones that they sacrificed really for nothing without even thinking was the strategic link with the united states. until 1990, europe was the strategic point on earth to it at the entire loyalty and engagement of the world's greatest military power, united states. once the cold war ended, that central position was no longer there. what did the europeans do instead of workout a new strategic relationship with the united states? they decided they're going to go into their own clubhouse, the european union, and build up something which is now called the current form current policy which is neither ford, current foreign policy. but at the effect of breaking the link with the united states. and i can say, i'm not involved in it anymore but i saw have enough contact, that link is now gone. the united states does not see its strategic i

she is not running the european union. the way of formulating decisions, so i do not want to do finger-pointing. what they did in ukraine was short-sighted and provocative on unnecessary and unprofessional. >> is the president disappointed by her reaction to what he has done? >> i cannot talk for the president. >> you think will find a diplomatic solution along the lines in ukraine can be stabilized and there can be a bridge between east and west and have relationship with eu and an understanding about the relationship with russia and everything will be fine? >> that is what we are hoping for and working for. >> not some messianic mission by vladimir putin to restore what considers the glory over the soviet union? >> we are much more pragmatic. russia is on the rise and the fact the crimea has been incorporated into russia reflecting the historical will of the people is an element of the spiritual of russia along with olympics which were effective. we are on a verizon. we do not need foreign adventures. -- we are on your ri

this may negatively affect the market the customs union. we need to consider what to do to protect our producers and exporters as close to work out the plan of cooperation with ukraine which is up i knew that but the problem it's the other end of the new show them the monthly meetings on a motion will blog about what's going to read into what is going to do just the other stuff we talked on the cis people expect a tight relations within the cis that's what people are skeptical about the customs union and a common economic space we have no choice we need to have a draft agreement in simon simon was mostly due to loose to play with. but it must not let them go and say that in this world. it is the government's own feet. our dentist. sure enough it is i'll be meeting again until may we will hold another meeting in april to discuss the remaining issues it will be one month before the signing agreement with the region comprises only she's inside and i'm sure or school proposal was it the exam. being in school mentioned that he will give them a nu

the teachers union or the parents? i think it's the parents and so do they. >> well, the parents overwhelmingly want them. i'm so glad that rick pointed out this physicalure in the democratic party. you have people on the right side of this like rahm emanuel, governor cuomo in new york and then you have people like de blasio and part of the reason his polls are plummeting he is on the wrong side of this. how could you be against parents wanting their kids to get out of the cycle of poverty by getting a real education. >> and john, we should mention by the way, we mentioned there is this connection with the old acorn people, and the teachers union, the teachers union funding acorn, acorn putting de blasio in office. and remember, president obama was very close to acorn. it was his administration funneling money towards them. >> yeah, i mean, i may not like it, i can see why teachers are defending their turf. how ever wrong it may be. my only problem with this discussion is that too often all of the criticism is on teach

just any union, this was the first union to endorse barack obama for president in the 2008 campaign.se today, thank you. >>> for more on this, let's turn to mary kissel joining us now. great to see you both. >> let me start with you, we just heard the reporting from ed henry. it's ironic that one of the biggest unions is now upset with somebody they really support in president obama. >> there are two big ironies here, the first is, you wouldn't have had obama care if the labor unions hadn't backed president obama and nancy pelosi, the law wouldn't have existed without their support for those political campaigns. but secondly, the white house wanted to pivot away from talking about obama care and use income equality to do that, now you have the unions using income inequality to pivot back to obama care. it's very uncomfortable for the white house. >> jan? >> i think we have to consider the source, 2k3wre67en, it's a union, and unions have very rich health plan benefits, far richer than most working americans. it's ironic that they're asking for this carveout because in line with affor

i would like them to have the opportunity to continue with the unions and the work force development agency and city to come to a reality. those people have been suffering looking for jobs. some of them are pushing shopping carts trying to take care of their families but they have been through these training programs. it behoves this organization to make sure those people are reinstated into the unions. once, when you come out of a work force development our city built, they put them in the unions, but then they don't have these jobs and to pay the unions, they kept the union dues, they need that assistance again. thank you very much. >> thank you. any other speakers cards? >> no other cards. >> okay. thank you. i will start with my question and then we'll go around. so in terms of the one fte, can you talk about how that person will work with our grood friend george bridges there. how is that interaction going to work? >> we have a long standing relationship with george. we are already actively working on the oci projects. correct me if i am wrong, george's role is specific to lbe's

they're in the pocket of the unions. >> the pocket of the unions because charter schools work, and if we're going to be inclusive as a nation we have to use solutions like vouchers, charters, giving poor kids every opportunity like your mother gave you. >> and she -- >> she shouldn't have to do that. >> and your mom is a teacher and union member. stefano. >> battling the teacher's unions in the >> she is a democrat, listen -- >> that would empower them to make the best decisions, the mothers to get into the charter school have a right, it is a moral issue. not a left or right issue. >> the democratic governor of new york, by the way, who doesn't want me here, side note, interestingly, he stood up for the charter schools this week. and he was right. now, he said he will find a way to keep them open. listen to what basil just said about his own mother, in the teacher's union. >> i will argue with him that you should stay here, but it is easy to be successful on education when you cherry pick the students you want. and if you have a small pool of the best students, very easy to be succes

they're in the pocket of the unions. >> the pocket of the unions because charter schools work. to be inclusive as a nation, we have to use solutions like charters, vouchers, giving poor kids every opportunity like your mother gave you, we as a society -- >> she shouldn't have to do that. >> that's correct. >> and your mom's a teacher and union member. amazing. >> battling the teachers unions in the states that i do, it's a fundamental morality issue, not left and right. let me give you one statistic. 12% reading proficiency. we build jail cells based on reading proficiency. 88% of headed to jail based on that. >> tell him. >> school choice would empower parents to make the best decision so mothers don't have to work three and four jobs. they don't have to weep when they lose a lottery to get into the charter schools. it's not left or right. it's a moral issue. >> the democratic governor of new york, by the way, who doesn't want me here -- side note -- interestingly, he stood up for the charter schools this week, and he was right. now, he said he'll find a way to keep them open.

therefore for the european union military issues have always been secondary. because nature basically took care of that but nope. i think with this new confrontation. i'm not sure but the bill be that much more spending cuts to normal. the european countries they. if you take their armies together babe yes we did it pretty strong so that just a matter of organizing that as a european force and i think this sort of you military integration will now increase. and whether there will be before spending all day. yet maybe maybe they could be also more spending actually broken. but in fact actually the military power of that the eu has is already significant it's just well organized as eu army units to its national armies that are separated them. but it didn't i think the yule could play he also are old because the eu is much too much was received in russia as a threat to me too is perceived as a threat so. if loving you is this for instance military too. as peacekeepers. the band. these could be eu eu military. not america of course but there are a part of peacekeep

the union members made about two other proposals to be considered in the new ball thirty five of them were adopted session that will go as far away the first function is for protection of migrant workers' rights. trade unions also have to address such issues as eight hour workday wages vacation in eccentric the union to protect employees' right to double up on what's good for everyone involved. according to preliminary data a knife attack by and refinement least six dead in chen chao the capital hunan province in china according to cnn all the killers were armed with knives. initially the death of three people in one film were reported the chinese police suspect that one of the attackers were killed recall that the event took place two weeks after the massacres that happened at the railway station in the city of kunming. there were twenty nine people killed in the attack in more than one hundred and thirty injured. the killers also attacked with knives. at least seventy were killed and thirty two injured in a suicide bombing in a suburb of pakistani city of peshawar reader knows the r

the european union and u.s. arned russia not to annex crimea. >> we propose to move to a further stage of the european response today, with travel bans and asset freezes on individuals. that is one of the things we will be discussing today. i'm confidence we will reach an agreement on that. at the same time, every diplomatic channel remains open to russia. itsalaysia is broadening appeal for international help in the search for the missing flight. authorities have asked 26 countries to support the mission that stretches from kazakhstan to the waters of australia. a news conference very shortly. >> the u.k. chancellor plans to boost construction and the budget. bbc he wouldthe extend the help to buy program. seals have stormed oilip attempting to export from libya. the ship was boarded close to cyprus. more details. what should we know? be asking, what is the story, morning glory? a statement from the u.s. department of defense says that around 10:00 eastern time this boat was boarded by u.s. navy seals because th

this is again the customs union idea of bringing ukraine into the russian customs union. the idea that was initially put forward on the part of the russians, negotiation between the eurasian union and the european union to have higher level trade negotiations. some variation of that is now back on the table. there are talks including coming out to the eu there has to be away of diffusing these tension officers come petting trade blocs. the idea of the european union association agreements, the transatlantic trade partner ship, transpacific partnership, the idea that the wto has ground to a halt and although trade negotiations are going nowhere and that maybe a regional whether bloc could find -- more likely to lead to confrontation and to more confusion. so now there's a discussion going on behind the scenes about how can we get across that? how can we find different ways of discussing this and finding out what is the main construct by the russians and others by the creation of these blocs. it is entirely possible that there could be some more discussion about eurasian uni

what has been the unions reaction and what has been japan's reaction to the unions for ozone -- to the union's proposal? question is about a 1% increase in base wages. it is not a bold demand by the union. i think a bigger number and the one that maybe gives toyota pause would be on the bonus front, which is almost seven months worth the equivalent for a bonus. and that would bring the increase more in line with what abe is looking for. be in excess of 2% increase in total pay for those workers. >> what happens if each side is not able to some -- to come to some type of resolution? usual to havend disputes between labor and management in japan. that is something that i think is worth watching. strikes are down by 99% from 1970's -- in the new in the mid-1970's. know by later this week, march 12, what the results of the negotiations will be. >> thank you for that. >> the mumbai session started 20 minutes ago. futures were down. that is essentially in line with the wider asia-pacific. the nifty on the singapore issues is up by half. satan is being affected by a equitieser price. falling

the employer that's being inspected. now osha is saying that it can be a union representative going on the employee's behalf when the unionoesn't actually represent those employees. i think if you are a business and you have a problem with the union, that might actually create a conflict and opening up for intimidation. >> are the inspectors called in by the employers or routine's ins. >> they are often called in by employees. i think sometimes they are routine. but the company that i looked at, for example, for 26 years that hadn't had a single osha vials has been involved in a seven year conflict with the local seiu. all of a sudden they show up with osha inspect and all of a sudden fines start coming around. i can see why that business thinks the unions are using the federal government to bully it. >> little more than conflict. isn't that business is suing the union for defamation or something? >> it is. it has a 9-million-dollar slander suit against them right now. >> so then it sees the union showing up with the inspectors, it's never been suspected before. it's suspicious it? >> is suspicious, i think. >> they belie

european union in which they have to calibrate their economy against their security. the european union has the greatest bite against russia because it has a $400-plus billion market. so the rub shans would feel the greatest consequences by european sanctions that the united states is already beginning to lead on. so i believe that at some point we'll get there because what's being taken here is a territory that was leaning to the west. it's not american territory, so at some point, i think the europeans will understand that this is a decisive moment. >> at some point, but what, in the conversations that you are having today with europeans, what kind of a reaction are you getting from them? >> increasingly i believe that the europeans will come to the conclusion that it is in their collective security to be resolute and firm in their response to russia. president putin calculates and right now he calculates that he could get away with crimea. he is looking at eastern and southern ukraine. he may be looking at elements of moldova. the reality is that the european union nee

if it's signed and agreed with the european union. and then increasingly as we near the date of the signature it was offering carrots to mr. yanukovych. there are quite a few people who believe that mr. yanukovych never intended to sign an agreement with the european union but he was trying to get the best deal possible, the ukrainian possible is in a very patchy. ukraine is going to default if it doesn't get economic assistance. and so in the last couple of days rush has offered $15 billion rescue package to ukraine that installed making sure that ukraine doesn't default and then cutting the gas prices from around $400 to 283, but cutting substantially so that ukraine would be doing much lower prices for russian gas. and the european union has sort of taken a step back now. interestingly enough, you suddenly had a rash of european politicians, american politicians going to kiev and speaking to the thousands and thousands of demonstrators who want to ukraine to sign an agreement with the european union who are in this my gone square we

the eurasian union is supposed to be like the european union, open borders, free movement of peoples.0% of the population russian is not very keen on this to get out of situations out of control. this doesn't bode well for the future of the eurasian union. if russia goes too far in the defense of russian speakers, what do they kazakhstan belarusians with the very population of russian speakers going to think about the implications of the eurasian union? so all of these different narratives are going to work against each other over the longer-term. this is what the difficulty becomes of these balancing act. you to keep control of your narrative. this is why it's important for the kinds of narratives like we just heard today to take precedence in russia on why narratives are being pushed back with a very aggressive offensive defense but we have to understand your that putin faces just like the rest of those, a very complex, very propagated political situation at home. is a big tent coalition but also includes a really lot of nasty xenophobic views just as their present in any of the set

it is decided by the european union. e problem is that europeans are not talking about the occupation. they are saying that there is an escalation. there are lots of possibilities. they may have one less military outpost. and europeans may say, by doing that, so what? that is a catchphrase. they should not be talking about escalation. they should be talking about occupation. this trouble is not going away. [inaudible] it is like how nazi germany grabbed the sudeten land. chamberlain was -- some people in the west may say the same thing about ukraine. we are in post-weimar europe. this is a challenge for everybody. >> the united states have the political will to stop mr. putin if his agenda is as you describe? [inaudible] it will cost vladimir putin. he thinks it is a zero-sum game. it is not a zero-sum game. the problem will be that americans have lots of other things to do. it will go from a serious citizen nation -- it will go into a three situation that affects financial markets. this is something that is really major

it was supported by the european union. mmediately, there were threats the they would storm presidential residence unless he resigns by 10:00 the next morning. that is my understanding. of what caused them to leave the city. was was not something which envisaged in the agreement. that was a clear breach of that agreement. >> there seems to be a move to get the international monetary fund to quickly offer money. russia is a member so would you participate? >> we are prepared to discuss various approaches to dealing with a very dramatic economic situation in ukraine. for us coming from the russian perspective, it is somewhat difficult to discuss it specifically. we don't know what the problem of this government will be in what kind of government it will be. will it be a government that will be supported by the broad segment of the ukrainian population? we are open to the idea of the international community meeting to help ukraine but there are too many question marks. >> let me ask you about the military movements in the crime

the teachers union or the parents?s the parents and so do they. >> well, the parents overwhelmingly want them. i'm so glad that rick pointed out this physicalure in the democratic party. you have people on the right side of this like rahm emanuel, governor cuomo in new york and then you have people like de blasio and part of the reason his polls are plummeting he is on the wrong side of this. how could you be against parents wanting their kids to get out of the cycle of poverty by getting a real education. >> and john, we should mention by the way, we mentioned there is this connection with the old acorn people, and the teachers union, the teachers union funding acorn, acorn putting de blasio in office. and remember, president obama was very close to acorn. it was his administration funneling money towards them. >> yeah, i mean, i may not like it, i can see why teachers are defending their turf. how ever wrong it may be. my only problem with this discussion is that too often all of the criticism is on teachers and teac

more than the european union needs russia. we need to have the common political will and to organize way toes in a cohesive have the political will and economic leverage in the future to be much clear than it is today. doing that may be one of the longer-term consequences of what russia has done in the crimea. >> sir peter. >> may i put it to the foreign secretary that brussels is probably -- is partly to blame. if the already over and largest european union is going to continue to try to extend its borders towards mongolia, we will indeed finish up with a third world war. every russian knows that the was theof the crimea greatest achievement of catherine the great. ofrussian government whatever political complexion could ever give up the crimea and you could be absolutely certain that the russian people are passionately in support of president putin over this issue. >> i differ a little bit on this. crimea to give the ukraine in 1954 and in the 1990's, followed that with a series of agreements. the budapest memorandum, the 199

the public sector. idea?it a good does it make sense for college athletes to be unionized? you are part of the union. should i assume that you think it makes sense. maybe it does not make sense. >> absolutely. workers form unions because they have issues in our way that they want their employers to address. they want to have a say in how those issues are dressed. unions can be an effective mechanism to address those issues with their employers. yes, i think there are clearly issues college athletes are no different. are notniversities employers of college students. it is not the same as an employee at a company. i think the national labor board would differ with your opinion. there are scores of public sector labor courts that have made similar rulings for groups like teaching assistants. i was a teaching assistant at the university of wisconsin and i was in the union. our union was able to bargain with the state. they made the same claim. they say that you have more students than employees. you can get compensated, either through tuition reimbursement -- there are definitely compensation issues. boar

they were fine with the union. it was outside forces. that is what is dismaying. it is something new that i has not really happened before. the you -- the uaw has taught a complaint with the relations board. we have a full board for the first time there in a long time. outcome know what the will be. i know they have piled an appeal. >-- filed an appeal. >> that says, how do you think labor should fight against these forces if it hopes to remain relevant? >> i do not know what the nlrb is going to find. it seems to me the people that voted no, i'm wondering if they're having second thoughts because they may have taken to heart, and made by public officials that simply were not true. re e there needs to be a -vote on this. not to ignore the last bailiwick, i wanted to ask you. ice and a lot of time with the tea party for other stories in the last couple of months. timehave spent a lot of with the tea party for other stories in the last couple of months. they say arne duncan is one of the most powerful in history because of the inaction of congress to reauthorize the

could you talk about the gamble between the european union and russia as well? i would also say that gas goes through ukraine. one of the largest companies in ukraine takes care of the pipeline that takes the gas from europe into russia. so, everybody is tied together is -- in these knots that will be difficult to on time. one of the things that gets lost in the discussion of the standoff between russia and the eu and the u.s. and russia is ukraine. ukraine is being turned into a battleground for the aspirations on the one hand of the eu, and on the other hand of russia. this is not good for ukraine. thisof the problem is process started in 2004 with the orange revolution, which brought a strongesidency nationalist, who is also very anti-russian. he had an anti-russian presidency. relations between the countries were very bad and part of the reason viktor yanukovych was legitimately elected in 2010 was people were very tired of the standoff with russia. it was not good for the ukraine. a lot of people have family ties to russia and economically, culturally, and h

it was when the soviet union challenged the united states on its turf. with the balance of strategic power, the balance of regional power and the balance of enters was clearly on the side of the -- of interest was cleary on the side of the united states. you don't want to challenge the other guy on your periphery. you want him to have to dislodge you from your center or which is what putin has done with the crimea. that's why it's going to be very difficult to dislodge. now, in the long run, yes, i think in the long run history favors us. russia is what soviet union was, an extraction economy with nuclear weapons whose fate depends on the price of energy. the reason why the gorbachev soviet union went down was that the price of energy suddenly hit the same real level as before the '73 oil crisis. so that's on our side. putin has taken a giant leap backward from the global markets, from investment, from exchange, from technology transfer. not good for the economy. empire's costly. the mess -- you have to pay a lot to clean up the mess that is both the eas

the course of all the of the european union have refused to sign off the european accounts the budget budget to account for the last twenty one years so the proper probability of the money going astray is very very high there is a very bad track record in relation to the ukraine in respect of. problems of transparency and corruption that is well known and quite frankly we don't know the answer to. the question other than that the probability is that we should exercise extreme prudence and in any case i do think the money is there to pay for it your foreign minister has said that ukraine could receive assistance in exchange for commitments and reforms what kind of commitments and what does he mean what exact well i don't know what i do know is that there are very big questions here i mean i'm not underestimating the importance of trying to achieve a rational and. well negotiated. to these problems i am not in favor of military intervention i do think that this referendum which is being proposed in the crimea is being taken in extremely short notice and is against the background

now, the union square bid recently went from 10 square blocks to 27. you will see part of those 27 blocks, the red outline is what is carved out for the tenderloin. we used to have a full time officer who was dedicated to the 27 blocks in the grid. now we share that responsibility with the central district which is north of the red line the tenderloin in the southern district. i think it's important to illustrate one of the social issues that we have in the tenderloin. i push this information out in the week and i think it's important to discuss these issues that challenge this area. there is a red dot that include all the alcohol sale outlets. that cluster there is the tenderloin. this is your core of liquor stores get the license. currently you have 24 of those licenses issued in the tenderloin and a beer and wine license. i know supervisor kim, she's worked very hard in making sure that when one of these, if somebody comes into the tenderloin that if they want to acquire this, there is requirements to shelf an additional license. so i want to talk ab
